iPhone 17 Pro's New Renders Reveal How MagSafe Adapts to Apple Logo Shift

Apple's upcoming iPhone 17 Pro models are expected to feature a wider camera bar at the top, and recent rumours have pointed out that this might force the Apple logo to reposition itself. This change appears to be quite likely with the latest renders, which gives a clearer look at the new Apple logo location and what is means to the MagSafe module on the iPhone 17 Pro. 

Apple leaker Majin Bu has shared a rendered image of the iPhone 17 Pro and iPhone 17 Pro Max encased inside a transparent, clear case. It shows the upcoming iPhones in a dual-tone design with a mixture of aluminium and glass materials.

As per the render, the iPhone 17 Pro models could feature an aluminium chassis all around, including wide camera bar module. But there could be a cut-out at the back for a piece of glass that should make it compatible with wireless charging and MagSafe accessories. This glass panel is what the Apple logo will be centred around, which means it'll be placed lower than before. 

The clear case also gives a glimpse of how the MagSafe array will look like on these models. Instead of a fully circular design, Apple could opt for a MagSafe ring that will have an opening of sorts. This way, it won't obscure the iPhone 17 Pro's repositioned Apple logo, which was previously located at the centre of the MagSafe ring. 

For a better reference, Majin Bu has shared an image of Apple's MagSafe wallet attached to an iPhone 16 Pro. The Apple logo on the MagSafe wallet should likely represent its position on the iPhone 17 Pro models. 

The renders reveal a design that could excite some Apple fans and potentially irk the rest. While it makes sense to move the Apple logo to the centre of the new glass panel, it'll certainly take some time getting used to. 

Apple is expected to launch the ‌iPhone 17 lineup at fall later this year, and its Pro lineup could feature the A19 Pro chipset and a 48 MP telephoto camera alongside other improvements.
